3:13 my fav part
It's all fun and games til he realize youtube is also a social media
It's kinda impressive how you can exactly express what you are thinking and this is what most people need to hear
Rafi being philosophical and talking about our society, health and generation is actually really great.
I'm here for philosophical Rafi
I guess his content is different from others as he is being natural, not a character who is way more different in real life. As he just stopped caring about likes and stuff, so i think he can make some good content without thinking about what others think. I'll try becoming like him now for sure. Thanks Rafi
I can totally relate the part where you talk about books, i’m 21 and maybe it’s a bit sad to say this but i also got into reading late. Books felt like a hidden treasure!
I’ve been following you for a while and i really liked this video in particular because the things you talked about was really nice. I know i shouldn’t be spending too much time online but i felt like someone need to talk to me that way, so thank you :)
7:34 best part when he talks about originality
This is the exact same reason i think his channel is different from the others its feels more natural and open 💙💙
I once had a time when I was completely caught up in the social media world. I couldn't really concentrate in school, I neglected my hobbies... And then I took a break for 1-2 months and realized how good it was for myself. In the time I've been sitting on my phone checking messages, watching who posted what, I prefer to go out and clear my head and think for myself and my future. I am currently in a phase in which I have to find myself. - thanks for your video rafi, love go out to you
I’ve been taking a break on tik tok and insta since it really burned my mental health and now I feel a lot better and free :) and I’ve been reading mangas and anime’s lately which makes me happy as well. Keep posting dude your content is very cool :D ✨
Wow ..the title gives chills .
Quiting social media for 160 days 😅 . Seriously , I can't quite even for some hours
Make it harder to open the app. Change the icon, move it annoyingly far off screen.
Find other things like hobbies to keep your mind and hands occupied
I like how you've totally stopped comparing yourself to others but why not compare you to yourself? That's where personal improvement starts
i like how you changed camera angles in middle of sentences
and also the nature video breaaaaks i love them :0
Me: *Uninstalls all the social media apps*
Also Me: * spends 6hr on youtube*
28 years old hag in me actually finds this great and legit! I was watching your contents since yesterday, never thought I'd get to see this philosophical one. You look more relaxed, and mature now. Keep going bro!
I quit social media last May 2020 after a shitty breakup. At the time, I quit bc I wanted to rebuild my self-confidence and get to know myself better, feel better about the things I hated about myself, and learn to be grateful about things. And I KNEW social media got to my head and made me insecure as hell. Well, a year later in 2021, I have not gone back to Instagram and Snapchat. I have no desire to go back. I do not miss the picture-perfect lives everyone tried to reach, or the superficial lives we all wanted to portray. I am wayyyyyyyyyy more confident in myself now, and I am actually really, really happy w/o social media! Though, the shitty thing about not using social media is that people think you hate them or don't want to talk to them anymore. But oh well, as long as I'm happy and can explain myself in-person to those people, I'm fine!
Your words make me think of my future 👀 . I'm gonna be what I wanna be 😁 just gotta stay focused and work hard
your videos literally comfort me sm
Really needed this. Thanks rafi! :D
Concordo com muitas das suas ideias e pensamentos, devo dizer que com a quarentena, apesar de ter uma fase louca que só passava o dia nas redes sociais, eu evolui muito. Depois de perceber que não me fazia bem, eu comecei a reparar mais em mim mesma e pensar como eu poderia me cuidar mais... hoje me sinto bem melhor e ainda uso redes sociais, mas bem menos e com um conteúdo mais selecionado, realmente parar e meditar no que você faz é o detalhe que faz toda a diferença.
i subscribed to your channel 2 yrs ago and you are still by far my #1 most favorite youtuber you always make the best vids 😭 this vid really helped me get my priorities straight
Seeing Rafi Post This, I Really Feel Could Relate. Having Social Media Actually Taking Your Time Without You Even Realize It, You'll Start Lost your Time, Stress Yourself, Keep counting Number,ect. I Still've It But I Stop Using Some of It, Never Log In Anymore & Only Had UA-cam Account for Fun Stuff & Listen Music. Rafi Point Is It's ok if you have social media as long you could control yourself when using it, respect time, Don't wander too much in it & Bring use/benefit from it. if you can't control it, it will only bring negativity for your own health & mental, & one way to relieve it by gradually try to not consume a lot world of social media to make your time productive & also controlling your mental state, erasing unnecessary worry, anger, & stress causing by social media.
Yoooo The Woman in the Dunes is what first got me back into reading that’s awesome
That’s so much for this video I been in a dark spot for months and been so crazy over likes and followers but when I got one my videos on viral on TikTok and got those followers and likes I didn’t like it it felt great for a day but then I felt trap and felt depressed I took a break from TikTok and other social media and felt lest pressure I took time to breath when I did I notice new things and notice other hobbies and got passionate over the things I lost my passion for I’m so glade to have found your videos 2years ago and glade you post this video I can tell you matured a lot and look fresh and look ready to take challenges and I’m happy to follow your journey:)
Books mentioned :
The alchemist
Veronica decided to die
Woman in dunes
Diary of mad old man
Metamorphosis
This is the Rafi I knew and has been following. Go for it, dude! Sending love and support!~
Thank you Rafi. Another great video that came from the bottom of your heart. Makes you look cool, man. Inspiring.
Damn bro I just found ur channel like yesterday and I've already seen 20 of ur vids lmao. Addictive asf. Ur authenticity makes the vids relatable and the all round good vibes in ur vids r just gonna keep people gravitating towards u like I did. Keep it up!
this has inspired me to take a break from some social medias, i gotta watch ur videos more!! ur really cool lmao
This is my first time commenting on one of your videos but I honestly look forward to watching them and they really help me or inspire me in so many ways.
I also deleted tiktok, that was wasting my life!!
And then you got award that you have much time than you thought🌿🌼.
You look more confident nowadays. Dope lofi as always.
Thank you for this Rafi❤️
After seeing this I have decided to take a small break from discord and twitter so i can see what i want to do next on my editing/designing journey. Maybe its making my website better, trying to make a new system to decide on which commissions/clients to pick.
Hi! I just found your channel and I’ve only seen a few videos but I already love your channel. You make me want to keep watching the videos you make and you seem like a person who is only their self and I think that makes the best video. I can’t wait to keep watching your vids, so keep it up! :)
Bruh , found your channel last week and I'm lovin it ❤️ keep on making good vids ❤️🔥
This video was informative and inspiring thanks for this Rafi
Hi Rafi, I'm trying to do the same, I got away from social media for almost 2 and to be honest it has helped to know more about myself in every aspect. Great video!
I see you from Lima, Peru 🇵🇪
Wow I watched almost all videos and you are rlly cool you are now one of my favorite youtubers
Your videos are so motivational Rafi :)
KEEP IT UP !!
I've just discovered your channel and i already love you cheers from Peru my brother
160??? Wow. I am really excited for this video
Hi rafi! So I’ve been watching you for a while now maybe a year and a half and your videos are so inspiring and they make me want to change my life for the better and become more like you, I just wanted to say thank you for these awesome videos. These videos make me feel calm when I’m stressed like today I’ve been getting yelled at all day and watching this video is giving me time to think and breath. These videos mean a lot, once again thank you. And I definitely gotta start buying some books soon maybe manga 😂 (time to go rewatching all your videos)
Ur vids are amazing!
love you're videos bro
Estoy viendo este video 3 semanas después de que lo hayas subido, realmente no había tenido la oportunidad de verlo... encontré este canal este mismo año ceo, y todos tus videos me han hecho reír mucho!!! Pero sin duda este video me ha inspirado a hacer mas, creo que también pondré una pausa a las redes sociales para dedicarme a hacer otras cosas, sin duda al estar en el encierro por el covid empecé a dedicar mas tiempo de lo necesario a las redes sociales, lo hacia con la excusa de querer seguir conectada a mis amigos, pero la realidad es que creo que estar tan presente en las redes sociales afecto mi manera de ser, el estar en contacto con tantas malas noticias, reportes de lo que esta pasando afuera y todas las ideologías tan diferentes que tiene la gente me afectaron un poco, así que creo que lo mejor es poner una pausa... espero que las lecciones de piano que he estado haciendo empiecen a dar sus frutos de manera mas rápida, recomienda mas libros que hayas leído para poder leerlos... gracias por tus videos!!! Fighting!!! Saludos desde México
I love your videos 💖...keep rocking
Question: Is UA-cam considered a social media? i don't use Instagram, Discord or Twitter that much but I always check UA-cam once in a while so that's still quite bad i guess
I have no friends, but anyway sometimes I use social media to check new messages from ad bots and other spam communities or profiles, kinda weird, but make me feel more like human being
I just love your videos😁
I finally had time to watch this video, and wow - one of the best videos I've ever watched in my life, pure masterpiece.
I spent about 8 months without my cell phone and bro- it was the best thing ever, this choice made me feel so good, when you are not "online" you have the opportunity to really get to know yourself and appreciate the little things, so do it, it's good empty your mind sometimes.
Great video dude! And I love Nujabes so I instantly hit the like bottom
omg the headphones thing, thanks for telling about it. i'm still having a hard time deciding to buy the headphones i really liked becuz it's very bright in colour and people would notice like. earphones or airpods literally pierces my ears and i find headphones comfy. funny how i'm thinking over other people's opinions over my comfort
Trust me, no one cares. Everyone is extremely self conscious and always thinking about if themselves are being embarrassed. Think about it, can you remember a random embarrassing stranger you've seen before? It certainly has happened, but I doubt you can recall their face or even why they wereembarrassing in the first place.
i just discovered ur channel today seeing how amazing japanese is made me wanna travel to japanese i love ur videos their amazing keep up the good work
Rafi never fails to make my day better with his videos ❤️❤️ I will say it again and again I really love your content keep up💕
Ive read the Alchemist the past year too. Great book, I don't agree on everything in it but it was definitely changed my perspective
Finally!!! The video i needed but in YOU version. 😭😭💗💗💗
I want to do this too but all the good stuff is on insta but ya know. 😞✌🦋💔
kudos to you for doing you! 💫
Yayyyyyy Rafi I’m happy for you! XD
Of course your still being so inspirational!😭✋🏼
One of my favourite videos!
That's sounds.....
(No word or phrase to denote my emotions and thoughts) .
this new vid is a whole different cool vibe
Rafael is the next Airbender. Wise as a monk, authentic asf
You have grown up as an amazing person Rafi!
PS:- books does shape your life amazingly
PSS:- unasked suggestion, read KITE RUNNER
Yo pienso que debería de ponerlo a prueba, está super interesante (por cierto, encanta que puedo escucharte hablar ingles y entiendo todo perfectamente )
Raffi is back again along with his supremacy ❤
You are inspirational . You are right , we should focus on improving ourselves rather than thinking about others😌😌😌
*I liked the video*
I love how you made this video BTW
This man is the only channel who can make a video on literally anything and I will enjoy it
I really have to do this. I don't plan on getting off youtube, but stuff like tiktok and instagram have gotta go.
I have been struggling for few days. I am suffering from burnout. I am trying to escape thorough social media. But i think that's not the solution . Thank you for this vid.
I recommend you reading Norwegian Wood by Murakami. It's a great book and I think you will really like it.
I will seriously enroll in your masterclass. Cutest big brain
Omg i did the same a time ago i deleted all social media off my phone and i think this is great cause you really feel life is easier and more peaceful idk i just really enjoy it and i think that im gonna buy an old nokia and throw away this phone
Rafi Lofi Radio my new favorite playlist
BRO, you should definitely read The Power of Five series. I've been off Instagram for over 3 months now too and I've started reading again after like 4 years. Reading books is a straight-up talent in the 21st century
reading is great and all but for reading too you have to go on the net since in most countries you cant buy certain books example mangaka isnt rlly available in my country
Rafi : I quit social media for 160 days
Also Rafi after 160 days on twitter : *thighs*
So your youtube channel is like an album, that's pretty cool
Please keep doing content about you daily life. I really liked the video about you day in China as a exchange student
UA-cam is basically the only social media I like and use and never makes me feel drained out unlike tik tok and Twitter those are really mentally bad lol
Super video. Mega mě baví tvůj edit :)
I was going to sleep and then saw this video and realized that i missed it when it got uploaded.
Watched it whole, now i guess I'll be finding my lifes meaning instead of sleeping whole night :)
Dude when I would quit social media my mental health slowly gets better and I’d be more at peace but there are those times I’d miss it and get back onto it and lose all control to stick there for a full month or two wasting my life doing nothing (this is my summer now)
Overall it’s nice seeing you and other people who do stick on or barely use a lot of media’s to do better for themselves. You guys are very inspirational to me and others! Keep up the good work!
Povedené video, možná se opravdu vyplatí zamyslet nad tím co s námi sociální sítě dělají.... Každopádně good job👏
Rafi i relate to you so much
I did too, and I think is the best for feel comfortable with yourself
Llegué y dije "wao su inglés es perfecto✨" XD
Te encontré en el crossover de Dogen y el Cringy, *new sub* :D
Sooo YOO torii here this vid was hella good i think i will use the media less ty for getting this idea into my head i will try to balance it like u have ty for this idea
The best video in the channel 💜💙
Sad thing is im live in iran and cant sub to your patreon and cant support you or get the extra content but love you man keep it going
I think I’m gonna start reading and also probably I’ll start my own youtube channel and upload blogs of my adventures in Mexico idk I feel motivated now
One of the things I disliked the most is that I turned 20. I could of done so many things while a teenager that could of impacted my life to be who i wanted to be
Very inspiring video.... i like the aesthetic.... i was thinking about that cause I spend all the time in sm and other stuff like anime just to escape reality.... but these are unhealthy ways.... so I'm gonna start with deleting sm firt ... wish me luck 🦋🍀
Don’t limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go as far as your mind lets you. What you believe, remember, you can achieve.
Mann I was just listening this song and now ❣️💓💓again I'm falling in love with this song-lost samurai(books of war)
Wisdom aha moment. Very impressed.
2:11 Headphones... In my country, people rarely wear it outside and if you do, you'll surely attract some people... Instead people opt to wear earphones or nothing at all...
Dude, you just can't make a bad video. I found your channel like 2 days ago, and after watching nearly all of your vids I can say, that you are by far my favourite youtuber already (and I'm subscribed to around 500 channels lmao). 'Cause you'e not just a "youtuber" in the standard sense, but an always happy boy with big thoughts that you are willing to share to with us and I believe you litterally change some people's lives by the way you look on things. Your happiness, dedication, humour and crazy big brain seems to already affect my life and make me think about what I wanna do with it. Thank you.
I found him like a year ago and I can agree
Yo acabo de llegar y sí, confirmo xd
BRO LITERALLY. I've known this channel for over a month now and it's *chef's kiss*
